Lecce
The capital of Baroque

Walking through the historic centre, you will feel like you are in an open-air museum, starting from Piazza di Sant'Oronzo, once called the merchants' square, continuing towards the Roman amphitheatre, until arriving in the old city where the Duomo stands of Lecce, a superb demonstration of baroque and Lecce stone.What see:
